Too much

As soon as Qi Jingchen entered the principal's office, the news that the new psychology teacher in the first grade was the youngest expert in the Pediatric Psychology Department of the Municipal Affiliated Hospital spread throughout the school.

I can say anything, but the most discussed is the appearance of the psychology teacher - a handsome mixed-race guy, 1.9 meters tall, with blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and a deep and pleasant speech...

At the end of the big break, Zhou Xiao and the brothers in the next class came back from using the toilet, and heard the chattering in the classroom.

Class 10 is the only class in this grade that is recognized as the most obedient and hardworking class among the two merit-based classes. There is a [-]-minute break between classes. Two-thirds of the students are either doing their homework or on the way to do it. It was the first time seeing Zhou Xiao during the big break.

He shuffled around, threw water at the little fatty Gao Yang with a playful smile on his face, and hugged Gao Yang's shoulder at the same table, and said with a smile, "Why is our class so lively today? I remember that the next class will be Brother Kou Niao's class." on."

Gao Yang took out a piece of paper to wipe off the water on his face, and spat at him, "Son, fuck your father and me again."

Zhou Xiao slapped him shamelessly.

"Haven't you heard?" Gao Yang's deskmate said, "Didn't the original psychology teacher in our grade go to give birth to a second child? Now the school has hired a serious psychologist from the Municipal Affiliated Hospital to give us psychological counseling." class."

Zhou Xiao snorted, "Oh, what's so strange about this."

"The key is that the psychiatrist is a handsome mixed-race guy. When you entered the door, you didn't see how excited the girls around the school committee were."

Hearing this, Zhou Xiao's expression froze for a few seconds, and his tone was heavy: "Is the psychiatrist named Qi Jingchen?"

Gao Yang's deskmate looked at him in surprise, "Yes, how do you know?"

"That's my little dad." Zhou Xiao covered his eyes in pain, "How do you think I know?"

Although Zhou Xiao, a doctor in the Psychology Department of the Municipal Affiliated Hospital, couldn't recognize all of them, Qi Jingchen was the only handsome mixed-race guy.

"Who are you?" Gao Yang stared round his eyes and howled loudly.The noisy classroom fell silent for a moment, and the eyes of the whole class gathered here.

Zhou Xiao frowned and glanced up, then said in a low voice, "Stupid, what are you doing so loudly?"

"No." Gao Yang is Zhou Xiaofa's child, and he knows the situation of Zhou Xiao's family best, "When did Aunt Zhou find you a baby daddy? That's not right, why is Dr. Qi your baby daddy?"

Now, the whole class looked at Zhou Xiao in the wrong way.

No one likes their own housework to be discussed in public. Zhou Xiao couldn't help punching Gao Yang, slapped the table and said loudly, "What the hell are you talking about? Dr. Qi is my godfather, I'm not his real son!"

"He's not married to my mother. My mother is his sister. What a fucking marriage! He's single!"

As soon as he finished yelling, he saw the students sitting in the two rows behind Gao Yang quickly lower their heads, flipping books and holding pens in one go, and the whole classroom was dead silent.

Zhou Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around tremblingly. Shen Zeming stood on the podium, looking at him expressionlessly.

Hold.Zhou Xiao's heart trembled three times, he glared at Gao Yang, stood up straight, bowed to Shen Zeming politely, "Mr. Shen, good morning."

Shen Zeming didn't make a sound.

Just as he sneaked back to his seat, he suddenly heard Shen Zeming ask him: "What did you just say?"

Zhou Xiao turned around in a daze, and subconsciously said, "I, I said that Dr. Qi is single and not married."

Realizing what he said, Zhou Xiao wanted to cut off his tongue on the spot. He looked at Shen Zeming in horror, and stammered, "No, I didn't mean to say this! I, I just wanted to say hello to you, Shen, Shen good morning teacher."

There were a few muffled laughs underneath, Zhou Xiao blushed, but he didn't hear Shen Zeming speak for a long time.He quietly raised his eyes and was stunned for a moment.

Teacher Shen, who was always unsmiling and uncompromising in their sixth class, was in a daze in front of the whole class, which was rare.

No wonder Zhou Xiao was surprised, when Shen Zeming hardly lost his composure, no matter what happened, it always seemed to pass in front of him calmly.

He stared wide-eyed at Gao Yang who was beside him.Gao Yang was obviously also surprised, they looked at each other knowingly, Zhou Xiao immediately ran to his seat, Gao Yang quickly lowered his head and opened the biology textbook.

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Xiao rarely read a page of biological multiple-choice questions carefully, and only heard Shen Zeming say: "The exercise booklet is page 23, and the class representative has the correct answer."

Zhou Xiao heaved a sigh of relief, and in the next second, Shen Zeming dropped the exercise booklet and textbooks, and strode out of the classroom.

Ban Li immediately exploded the pot.

"Fuck, fuck, did you see? Brother Kou Niao would be in a daze?!"

"Absolutely, this is the first time I have seen such obvious emotional fluctuations on Brother Kou Niao's face in the lifetime series."

"Hey, did you find out! Brother Kou Niao dyed his hair!"

"Fuck! Really!?"

And Shen Zeming, who was in the discussion center of the class, was hiding in the toilet cubicle and smoking alone.

The toilet in No. [-] High School is not well sound-proofed, so Shen Zeming's sobs can't be heard from the innermost cubicle against the wall.He was leaning against the partition, his eyelids were half drooping, and he was stepping on the toilet seat with one foot, with a rare confusion in his eyes.

The boy seemed to be on the phone, crying louder and louder, crying and cursing at the other end of the phone: "I'm your son, why did you lie to me?"

Yes, why did Qi Jingchen lie to him.

Shen Zeming dusted off the cigarette ash and looked down. The cut on his ring finger had long since scabbed. From a distance, it looked like the mark left by wearing a ring all year round.

When Qi Jingchen was cleaning up for him that night, Shen Zeming squinted and saw Qi Jingchen take off the ring, and he wiped the small silver ring preciously and put it on the edge of the sink.

Even after soaking in the water for a long time, the white ring on the root of his ring finger is still very conspicuous, it is the trace left by wearing the ring all year round.

But Zhou Xiao said that Qi Jingchen and Zhou Huixin were not married.

Shen Zeming frowned, pressed the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can next to the toilet, opened the door, and stood in front of the sink to wash his hands.

The boy had stopped sobbing, and told the person on the phone that he would have to pay 300 yuan for teaching and supplementary fees next week. I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, and the boy's voice dropped.

There was the sound of water rushing, Xu didn't expect that there would be other people in the toilet during class time, the boy was startled, obviously stuck, and then hung up the phone in a low voice.

He hastily opened the door, and suddenly met Shen Zeming in the mirror, "Shen, Teacher Shen?"

Shen Zeming remembered him, Wu Peng, the monitor of class five.He raised his eyelids, hummed a syllable through his nasal cavity, turned off the tap, stopped before going out, turned his back to Wu Peng and said, "Let the biology class representative come over before the next class."

Wu Peng didn't understand why, he was taken aback for a moment, and when he looked up again, Shen Zeming had already left.

He stayed in the bathroom for too long, when he went back

There are only 10 minutes left in the fourth class.Yang Xiaojie, the representative of the biology class, was at his front desk. When the teacher turned back to write, he tapped Yang Xiaojie on the shoulder, leaned over and whispered, "Mr. Shen asked you to go to the office after class."

After finishing what Shen Zeming explained, Wu Peng took out his notebook and listened carefully to the class, but he didn't expect that there would be a follow-up to this matter.

One minute before the preparatory bell for the fifth class, Yang Xiaojie came back from the office holding the biology test paper in one hand and a small light blue box in the other. After handing out the test papers, she stuffed the box into Wu Peng's arms and said, "Shen The teacher asked me to give it to you."

Wu Peng opened it and saw that there were three brand new one-hundred-yuan bills lying in the box, with a sticky note at the bottom - [-] progress in the next exam, interest-free.

Shen Zeming came back smelling of cigarettes, and the people below started to look at each other again, but no one dared to speak out.He usually looks at people with a cold face, but now for some reason, the air-conditioning outside is ten times as usual.

At the end of a class, except for the voices of the class representative and the school committee answering questions, the whole class was as quiet as a chicken.Shen Zeming noticed something strange, but didn't say anything. He wrote down the homework for the three-day holiday of the Dragon Boat Festival on the blackboard with a few strokes, and finished class early for the first time.

As soon as he walked out of the classroom, the group of children inside seemed to trigger some switch, and the crap kept coming and going.Shen Zeming frowned and loosened his brows, stopped and glanced back, rolled up the exercise book and left.

Three minutes later, when he stepped into the office, the phone in his pocket vibrated twice. Qi Jingchen's text message and Song Lan's call came in at the same time, lying side by side on the notification bar.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he hung up Song Lan's phone and clicked on Qi Jingchen's text message first.

"Dinner after school, Mr. Shen, don't forget."

Shen Zeming pressed to enter the dialog box, and the keyboard popped up. He paused with his fingertips, then exited the interface and picked up Song Lan's call again.

Song Lan was very quiet on the other side, Shen Zeming took a deep breath, lowered his eyes and called "Auntie".

Song Lan didn't respond, and remained silent for two seconds, before asking indifferently, "Why didn't you answer the phone just now?"

"in class."

Song Lan snorted coldly, "Can't you answer the phone in class?"

"Sorry." Shen Zeming clenched his knuckles and whispered, "There will be no next time."

Only then was Song Lan satisfied, and with a slightly better tone, he continued, "Don't forget to go to the City Affiliated Hospital the day after tomorrow. Lin'er is back, and it's time for a blood transfusion."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Zeming stood with his eyes closed for a full 2 ​​minutes before releasing his clenched fists.

When the get out of class bell rang, Yang Xiaojie gave a loud report at the door. He exhaled, turned around and nodded to Yang Xiaojie.

Shen Zeming has no class in the afternoon, so he must pass by an old barber shop on the road when he goes back. The owner is an aunt in her sixties. There are always a group of old men and women from the community gathered in the shop on weekdays. You can hear mahjong playing from afar. the sound of.

Today, for some reason, the store was deserted and deserted. The boss was watching TV on a tablet by the counter. Shen Zeming raised his eyes and thought of Qi Jingchen inexplicably—ugly.

He pursed his lips in embarrassment, opened the curtain and went in.

The community is so big, and the old auntie has a good memory. When she saw Shen Zeming coming in, she straightened up and pushed the reading glasses, "Hey, isn't this Mr. Shen, come to cut your hair?"

"Dye your hair." Shen Zeming sat down on the innermost armchair, stared at himself in the mirror and said, "It's all black."

The aunt agreed immediately, turned off the TV and quickly copied the guy to do things.

The place for dinner is at the farmhouse opposite the school. It is delicious, plentiful, and cheap.In the past, the teachers would have dinner here after the meeting, and the number of times they came here, many teachers became acquainted with the boss.

When Shen Zeming entered, the box was almost full, and there was only one vacant seat directly opposite Qi Jingchen.

The box was very lively, everyone gathered around Qi Jingchen and gossiped enthusiastically, few people noticed that Shen Zeming came in.

He lowered his eyes and sat down on the empty seat, took apart the bowls and chopsticks, and calmly raised his eyes to look at the ring on Qi Jingchen's ring finger.

Qi Jingchen's scorching eyes swept across the air, staring at him for a few seconds, and then Shen Zeming heard him say: "Mr. Shen is late, punish yourself with three cups."

The talking stopped, and everyone's eyes focused on Shen Zeming's face.

Shen Zeming glanced at Qi Jingchen expressionlessly, picked up the wine glass on the table and downed three cups as he said, and Peng Yu, the physics teacher of Wang Wang, immediately took the lead in applauding.

This small episode was quickly taken over by other interesting stories, and Shen Zeming became the most inconspicuous one in the crowd again.And Qi Jingchen was very popular with other teachers, and many enthusiastic teachers clamored to introduce him to someone.

Qi Jingchen didn't directly refuse, but showed the ring on his ring finger, and said with a smile, "I have a family."

Hearing this, Shen Zeming couldn't help but look up at Qi Jingchen. The man was smiling all over his eyes, and he wasn't at all flustered as he should be when lying in public, as if he should be.

During the dinner, someone mentioned Zhou Xiao's matter, Qi Jingchen apologized for Zhou Xiao with a smile, and the topic changed from marriage and love to student grades.

The teachers finally didn't focus on Qi Jingchen, he sat up and went to the bathroom, Shen Zeming struggled for a few seconds, put down his chopsticks and followed.

The bathroom in the farmhouse is very simple. A water tank for washing hands at the door and a mirror whose surface is not very clear are all the facilities.

Qi Jingchen was washing his hands with his back slightly arched. The water flow was a little small, and it slowly flowed through his fingers, which happened to be convenient for him to rub one by one carefully.

He raised his eyelids to look at Shen Zeming behind him, then lowered his head again.After a while, he turned off the tap, turned around and looked at Shen Zeming.

"What does Teacher Shen want to say?"

There was the sound of a kitten on the stone road outside the bathroom. Shen Zeming clenched his knuckles, fixed his eyes on the ring on Qi Jingchen's ring finger, and said expressionlessly, "You are not married."

Qi Jingchen's hand on the fence trembled suddenly.
